Love Ends, Freedom AwaitsChapter 1
The day I found out I was pregnant, my husband Brandon's secretary, Jenna, posted a photo of her baby bump on Instagram. The caption read, [As long as you're loved, you can still be a beautiful girl--even when you're pregnant!]
In the picture, she was wearing nothing but lace lingerie, leaning into Brandon's chest while they took a selfie. His hand was resting on her bare, swollen belly. On his finger was the exact same wedding ring as mine.
I commented, [Congrats.]
Seconds later, my phone rang. Jenna was on the other end, frantic. She apologized, claiming she posted the picture to get back at her boyfriend after a fight.
Brandon grabbed her phone and snapped at me, "You can't have a baby, so now you're losing it seeing someone else pregnant? No wonder you can't get pregnant with all that jealousy."
Five minutes later, Jenna posted again: [Soon, I'll have two strong men protecting me!] And Brandon liked it immediately.
I took off my wedding ring, tossed it into some bushes, and headed back to the hospital to schedule an abortion.
For once, Brandon made it home before 9 p.m.
